Researchers from the CMBI helped to identify aberrant calcium channel activity as a molecular switch responsible for the development of adrenal adenomas. Such adenomas can produce excess aldosterone, leading to hypertension in humans. The European research consortium led by University of Cambridge scientist Morris Brown, has recently published their findings in Nature Genetics … more »
